Okay so a tiny update... I have like 4 video ideas in my head that I'm like itchy itchy to do. This requires major casting calls though. So if ANYONE is interested in helping me by starring in any of them, please drop me an IM inworld or leave a comment & let me know. kkthnx :)

Cupcake! At Fashion Mode

A new Store full of swanky goodies, fresh baked for your pleasure! Introducing Cupcake! A fellow tringo'r, Kiki Cunningham is one of three designers (Crystyle Bukowski & Tilly Tokyo too) behind this sweet-shop of retro wholesome goodness.

I bought this uber cute Saucy Carhop dress in pink, of course and Hawks & I played 50's dressup. :p I paired it with my Sand Shack Surf Couture - Diner Hip Apron and a pair of pink roller skates.

There's so much to check out at Cupcake... Hair, jewelry, shoes, and clothes. Jump into retro. You can find them in the North East Corner of the Fashion Mode complex. Also they have a blog!!! Yes, add it to your feeds.

It's experitential...

Burning Life 07' doesn't officially open until September 24th (*gasp* Same day as the Heroes - Generations Premiere) but it's open for exploration, awe-gazing, vehicle driving, picture taking, etc right now. :)

How to get there without the left at Albuquerque... Open your big map & type in "Burning", search and pick one. :D Happy exploring :)

In the meantime...

Hawks is getting in a lil cat nap so I thought I'd do a tiny lil post. So... hmm. Hai, how are ya? Good, good. As for me, I spent way too much time in the sun today & now my tatas look like heaving red ripe tomatoes. I'm sure you needed to know that. They fucking hurt! Really.

So, last night someone kinda accused me of being a journalist. I really should start keeping count on how many times I've had to say that I am most certainly NOT a journalist of any kind. That's the bestest thing about having a blog... it can be whatever you want it to be. Blog is short for weblog. A weblog is a journal (or newsletter) that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption. Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or the Web site. In our case, VS is just what we've always claimed it to be - our thoughts, opinions, views, pictures, mush, fashion, etc.

How often do I actually blog something here that actually "needs" to be said? Not often, in fact I bet you can count it on one hand. (Haha Dreamer I heard that "fixator" under your breath - I know!). I look at blogging almost the same way I look at Snapzilla, sorta. An online Journal, or history/diary of my SLife. I use to say that I don't blog for an audience and to some degree that's still true. If you read & get enjoyment... YAY! If you choose not to read because of one reason or another, that's good too. But please do not consider my ramblings journalism EVER! Okay... wait... JH Report is journalism. Haha! Mayhaps.

September 1st - Countdown begins...

Heroes returns Monday September 24th for Season 2 - mark your calendars :D

Esc'ing Again

Haha! I just love that picture. Okay so I'm out to hit the beach, and Hawks has gone to watch a football game. So like... toodles. :D

Jelly's Closet - My Newest Items

OMG! So yay I got quality Hawks-time today so you get a happier Jell. :D I know, I know you missed me. :p Just kidding. Anywho, in my Hawks absence, when I was actually inworld, I shopped and over bloated my invey BIG TIME. I'm now sitting at 36,214 items. Ouch!

TESLA - Bowler Hat (unisexy)
Starting with my new hat! Omg! I love hats, even more now that I've fingered out the secret to hair vs. hat (thats another post). This Bowler hat is from Tesla. Oh oh, the plethora of head topping goodness just doesn't end in that store.
0 Style *Lemon* Hair
I already had a couple styles from 0 Style I bought awhile back when the store was tiny. I'm so glad I took a second look today. I love this Lemon Style and it works with all the hats I bought today. :p If you have to use search, try 'Zero Style'.

Candy Faces by Chicanery
I saw this last night on Fashion Victim and showed to Dreamer. I didn't have time to get them last night but Dreamer loves me. I logged into a folder of 3 Candy Faces from my Buttercup. :) These are new at Chicanery. I have Aches, Bruise & Sprain (pictured). They are the cutest lil dolls. If you've never been to Chicanery, I'm sorry. :( I love this store... full of toys, dolls, playground springs, the pack of the missing backpack, avatars, amusements and oddities. Don't forget to fuck an avocado while you're there and don't forget to take pics. :o

NippleGate Shirts for Your Protesting Pleasure
Okay I agree with Dinee on this one. This is getting out of control, BUT the shirts are free, FREE Dinee. *cheesily grins while wagging her finger at the crowd* I agree SL is an art form inside itself. I do think that the artists have kind of lost perspective here if it's come down to shirts with "Vic, do not touch on our nipples" and "Nipples Are Art" printed on the reverse. It could be a lot worse though. Honestly. Vint has said a lot on the subject as well. That's where I heard about this shirt. It's free on SLexchange so you can get yours too. I did get them for 2 reasons... 1. they're free and a piece of SL history 2. I couldn't build my way out of a paper bag let alone be an artist, this is a way I can show my support. So it kind of makes me seem hypocritical but in my head, it makes sense.
